Methods: Some influencing factors of MTT assay in studying the sensitivity of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) to anti-cancer drugs were observed, including red blood cells, platelets, three different kinds of DMSO and different concentrations of MTT. Meanwhile the stability of tumor drug-coated plate was monitored. Results: The red blood cells and platelets may affect the results at a certain range of concentration. Analytical pure DMSO, both imported and domestic reagents showed the same color with MI3-, and the A values of the reaction were dependent on MTT dose. The stability of the freeze-drying drug-coated plates was superior to non freeze-drying ones. Conclusion: To make clear and definite all kinds of influencing factors might contribute to a kind of standard MTT assay for drug sensitivity test in vitro.展开更多
